On Tuesday February 25, the Wisconsin Chapter continued the tradition of holding a meeting in conjunction with the Milwaukee Auto Show. Usually, by this time, the region has experienced signs of springtime, but this year the so-called "Polar Vortex" kept the temperatures outside chilly.
But that was hardly the case inside as nearly one hundred fleet professionals gathered for robust conversations and a hearty meal. Following a brief business meeting, the audience was treated to presentations by no fewer than eight OEM representatives.
After absorbing all that information on the new and exciting vehicles coming to market, attendees then went over to the Auto Show to "kick some tires."
Chapter member Tom Krause said, "One hall this year was dedicated to the history of the Excalibur automobile. Although not a car typically populating many fleets, it still brought a smile to the faces of these fleet professionals. With the toes of our shoes scuffed from all the tire-kicking, we left knowing that spring must be coming down the road sometime soon."
